The Northern Shovelers have arrived and were out hunting amongst the autumnal colors of the pool yesterday. 🍂🍃🍁💜

I couldn't tell who or what was more beautiful- the water or the shovelers.

Closeups of a tiny Golden-crowned Kinglet.

Boy have they arrived! 💕

The last still shows the little cutie at his normal size.

A Prairie Warbler pauses for a moment.

I love their distinct song 🎶 that rises as they sing. I learned that it is called their "A song" and is sung to attract females. 💕

A week ago it seemed like Black-throated Green Warblers were everywhere. 💕

They start their fall migration in late September so we were just a nice refueling stop before they continued down south.

It's always nice when an American Kestrel will sit for you.
This one was taking a break from hunting parakeets.
I'm glad I didn't get to witness any action. 😳

The Palm Warblers have arrived and they are pretty cheeky. 🥰

It was almost as if this Osprey was saying, "Why, why did I let that fish go?!" 🤣
This poor guy was being bombarded by a Belted Kingfisher and Northern Flickers but that did not seem to faze him.

If you scroll back and forth real quick, you can create her wings moving. 💕

It is always an honor observing a Ruby-throated Hummingbird. 💕

I don't know about you but I don't feel like Fall migration is completely official until I see a Black and White Warbler.

It took a couple of weeks but found this gorgeous girl just hanging around! 🤣

The beauty of a Northern Parula. 💜

We were getting eaten alive by insects while observing this magnificent warbler. 🦟🐞🪲

It was totally worth it! 😍

This beautiful Hooded Warbler put on a show the other day.

They are usually in the understory of trees so this was a fortuitous occasion! 💕

It was an Eastern Wood-Peewee type of day as they were pretty much everywhere!
I love hearing their "peeeeeeaweeee" call! 🎶

These guys will be leaving soon, on their solo journey, to continue on to Central and South America.

Bon Voyage little ones! 🧳❤️

I FINALLY got to see a Blackburnian Warbler in the light!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
The funny thing is, I shot this bird knowing it was different but I had no idea who it was!
So happy to see this beauty! 🥰

Who doesn't love a Kingfisher, especially one with a fish? 🥰
This female Belted Kingfisher was having a field day, hunting and eating away! 🐟🐠🐡

I have been lucky enough to see 10 species of hummingbirds so far, but never have I been lucky enough to see their nests. 🪹
Yesterday, I was in awe after a friend pointed one out.
What a scene! 🥰

Finally birding back at home and was lucky to catch this American Kestrel as it took a break.
It was a kestrel filled day as I came upon at least 3 and all were agitated as Red-tailed Hawks were in their territory.

Yes- I had that on my original post but there is a character limit. :) They are lovely to be around!!!
